Lunch / Breakfast Menu
Franklin Academy participates in the National School Lunch Program and has qualified for the Community Eligibility Provision (CEP) for the 2023-24 school year. This means that ALL Palm Beach Gardens campus students will eat FREE.
Schools qualifying to operate CEP serve breakfast and lunch to all children at no charge and eliminate the collection of meal applications for free, reduced-price, and paid student meals. This new approach reduces burdens for both families and school administrators and helps ensure that students receive nutritious meals.
